The three-part Pacific island series has already clinched an earlier accolade for Mr Board, who is based in Bangkok and has been a journalist with CNA since 2013.
In September, he also emerged a winner at the prestigious Covering Climate Now awards, which are among the most respected in climate journalism, with more than 1,200 entries from nearly 50 countries and judged by more than 100 experienced journalists worldwide this year.
His series was among three winners in the Displacement and Migration category, which was one of 14 under the awards.
Describing his reports as “comprehensive, well-researched, and, critically, respectful” of their subjects, the judges said that while the plight of the Pacific Islands region is well known, Mr Board’s work stands out for its strong characters, policy depth and empathetic storytelling.
“These are richly detailed, benchmark stories,” the judges said. “They exemplify high-impact journalism.”
